Oh, the joys of discovering the intriguing members of the British Royal Family! Lady Amelia Windsor, 29, holds the position of 43rd in line for the British throne. As the granddaughter of Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, and a first cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth II, she has earned the title of “Britain’s most beautiful royal.”
A Fashion Icon
Lady Amelia has made a significant impact in the fashion industry, particularly when she graced the cover of the high-society magazine Tatler, alongside topless English rugby player Maro Itoje. She is signed to the prestigious modeling agency Storm, which was founded in 1987 by Sarah Doukas in London. This agency is renowned for discovering famous figures such as Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne, Behati Prinsloo, and Anya Taylor-Joy.
Lady Amelia, a graduate of the University of Edinburgh, studied Italian and has since worked for prestigious fashion brands such as Chanel, Azzedine Alaïa, and Bvlgari. Her extensive experience has made her a respected figure in the front rows of international fashion shows, including those hosted by Dior, Armani, and JW Anderson.
As noted on Storm’s website, “Amelia is hugely committed to supporting sustainable fashion, and her Instagram showcases many of the eco-friendly brands she is passionate about. She is also a regular contributing editor for Tatler, where she covers topics related to fashion, travel, and lifestyle.”
Her Family Background
Lady Amelia is the youngest child of the Earl of St. Andrews, George Windsor, and Sylvana Tomaselli. Due to her father’s conversion to Roman Catholicism for his marriage, he initially lost his succession rights. However, with the passing of the 2013 Succession to the Crown Act, he regained those rights. Notably, Lady Amelia’s two older siblings were confirmed in the Catholic faith, thereby relinquishing their succession rights. As a result, she is the only heir of her father who retains a place in the line of succession, as explained by Stephanie Petit for People.
